Underarm Rash Pictures

A change in the texture, appearance, or color of the skin is termed as a rash. The armpit rash pictures, or the armpit rashes, affect the skin beneath the arm. They affect people of all ages. While in some people the symptoms only last for a few days, in others they seem to be there, forever. When affected by the condition, the skin turns to red color, becomes disheveled with patches, and may even have a foul smell. Armpit rash gets formed when something irritates the body area for a long period of time. The body region starts to itch, may have the pus accumulation, and may also be a source of pain. Food allergies, contact dermatitis, chemical allergies, eczema, Candida, insect bite, poison ivy, and a reaction to metal contact, may be the cause of the armpit rash. Some diseases, including strep throat, ringworm infection, chicken pox, impetigo, and measles, among others, can also cause the armpit rash. Rashes, when accompanied by breathing difficulty, fever, throat constriction, swelling in the facial region, change in consciousness, among others, call for immediate medical attention. Fortunately, most of the times armpit rashes are not life threatening, and other extreme complications do not accompany them. This condition can be easily treated with the remedies. The remedies remove the redness, irritation, bad smell, and itchiness that is caused by the rash.
